Lighting and visibility -> Wiper control stalk for your Peugeot 3008 2016-2023
Lighting and visibility
– Camera masked by snow, mud or dust.
– Camera scratched after going through roller
car washes repeatedly.
– Very high outside temperature.
– At the top or bottom of a steep slope.
– On a very winding road.
Wiper control stalk
Before operating the wipers in wintry
conditions, clear any snow, ice or frost
from the windscreen and around the wiper
arms and blades.
– In a bend.
– After an impact which may have impaired the
camera settings or damaged it.
– After repainting of the grille outside of the
PEUGEOT dealer network or a qualified
workshop.
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windscreen. In extremely hot or cold
weather, check that the wiper blades are not
stuck to the windscreen before operating the
wipers.
The camera detection range is between 15 m
(for pedestrians) and 200 m, depending on
visibility conditions.
The image provided by the camera is displayed
in shades of grey in the instrument panel; warm
objects appear brighter than cold objects.
If pedestrians or animals are detected, they
appear in yellow frames.
Maintenance
recommendations
The infrared camera has a wash nozzle
connected to the vehicle’s front screenwash
system.
This nozzle operates every 5th use of the
screenwash.
Regularly check that the camera is clean.
In bad weather, or in wintry conditions, ensure
that the camera is not covered with mud, ice or
snow.
After using an automatic car wash, you
may temporarily notice abnormal noises
and poorer wiping performance. You do not
need to replace the wiper blades.
If the system detects a risk of
collision with pedestrians or
animals, it triggers an alert: one of these symbols
appears on the instrument panel. The
corresponding silhouette is framed in red.
If the "Night Vision" display mode has not been
selected, the alert is triggered in the form of a
temporary window.
Windscreen wipers
In the event of an alert, the driver may act by
making an avoiding manoeuvre or by braking.
Malfunction

The windscreen wash jets are
incorporated into the tip of each wiper
arm.
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length
of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and
reduces screenwash fluid consumption.
Switching off
Reverse gear
Automatic wiping
When reverse gear is engaged, the rear wiper
will come into operation automatically if the front
windscreen wipers are operating.
Refer to the corresponding section.
The settings are changed via the Driving/
Vehicle touch screen menu.
Single wipe
► Pull the stalk briefly towards you.
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do
not operate the screenwash if the
screenwash reservoir is empty.
Only operate the screenwash if there is no
risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen
and hindering visibility. During the winter
period, use "very cold climate" rated products.
Never top up with water.
In the event of accumulation of snow or
hard frost or if a bicycle carrier is fitted to
a towing device, deactivate the automatic rear
wiper via the vehicle configuration menu.
In position 1 or 2, the wiping frequency is
automatically reduced when the speed of
the vehicle drops below 3 mph (5 km/h).
When the speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h)
again, the wiping frequency returns to the
original frequency (fast or normal).
Rear screenwash
► Turn the ring all the way towards the
dashboard and hold.
The screenwash and the wiper operate for as
long as the ring remains turned.
A final wiping cycle is performed when
screenwashing ends.
